I've never been the type to care what others think of me

So why have I been feeling so down lately

I guess I do it to myself, it's just hard to see

What happiness really means to me

It seems like every time I feel as if I'm doing fine

I end up disappointed almost every time

What am I doing this for? I need to find out why

'Cause the only opinion that should matter is mine

Instead I waste my time in fear

Wondering if after all these years

Everything I'm working for will ever come to pass

Yeah, I know that one day it will come

And I'll look back on all the things I've done

And I'll realize that every single tear I've ever shed

Was worth it in the end

I've never been the type to give up all that easily

But I won't lie, some days just get the best of me

Yeah, sometimes I feel okay, sometimes it's hard to breathe

And I question what my dreams mean to me

That's when I waste my time in fear

Wondering if after all these years

Everything I'm working for will ever come to pass

Yeah, I know that one day it will come

And I'll look back on all the things I've done

And I'll realize that every single tear I've ever shed

Was worth it in the end

And there are people who just wanna bring me down

And I just can't afford to keep those people around

And no more pinning all the blame on someone else

'Cause the biggest battle is the one I'm facing with myself

And I'm so sick of wasting time in fear

Wondering if after all these years

Everything I'm working for will ever come to pass

Yeah, I know that one day it will come

And I'll look back on all the things I've done

And I'll realize that every single tear I've ever shed

Was worth it in the end

Worth it in the end
